An assortment of art glass paperweights of various forms and internal decorations, featuring designs consistent with mid-to-late 20th-century production. The collection includes several spherical and egg-shaped pieces. One spherical weight contains a dense, dark green and black swirled nebula-style core encased in clear glass. A teardrop-shaped weight is decorated with an external brown spiral trail wrapped around the clear body. One egg-shaped weight features an internal white spiral vortex with multi-coloured glass flecks at the base. A pink-tinted egg-shaped weight contains a purple internal stylized floral or mushroom-like lampwork form. A deep blue spherical weight features yellow and green spindly, seaweed-like forms accompanied by controlled air bubbles, a technique known as bullicante. A clear spherical weight contains pink and white internal ribbon swirls positioned over a mottled green base. The items are produced using a variety of glassworking techniques including lampwork, external trailing, and controlled bubbles. No makers’ marks, signatures, or labels are visible on the pieces.
